Vienna International Airport Renovation of Checkin

Transcription

1 Vienna International Airport Renovation of Checkin 1 & Check-in 2 The comprehensive renovation of the suspended roof constructions, the check-in counters and ticket sales areas as well as the renovation of the entire building equipment, while maintaining full operations in check-in halls 1 and 2. Bianca Rüf Introduction and historical review Vienna Airport, the largest airport in Austria, is located in Schwechat, south-east of Vienna. It was brought into operation in 1938 as a military airbase of the German Air Force. Parts of the airport were used in 1944 as a concentration camp for prisoners. Today, three hangars from this time have been preserved on the apron. check-in counters not have changed location since their initial construction, numerous conversions and extensions have lent a new character to the Departure Hall. Viewed from the approach, the architectural design of Checkin 1 is reminiscent of the previously built Check-in. Internally however, the two buildings demonstrate mostly different characteristics. (See: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/flughafen_wien) In the year 1954, the newly formed Wiener Flughafenbetriebsgesellschaft ( Vienna Airport operating company ) took over management and flight clearance, and constructed the first terminal building, which is still preserved as a striking construction with its control tower. (See: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/flughafen_wien) Vienna-Schwechat Airport is still today the only airport serving Vienna, and is divided into four interconnected check-in areas: Check-in 1, 1A, 2 and Check-in 3. The VIP-GAC Terminal located further to the west and Checkin 1A were also built by PORR over the years Construction of Terminals 1+2 Overview plan of Vienna Airport Check-in areas Construction of Terminals 1+2 Construction of Terminal 1 & Terminal 2 (today Check-in 1 & Check-in 2) Check-in 2 was completed in 1960 and was the only Departure Hall of Vienna Airport until the construction of Check-in 1 in the year Spacious terraces were laid out in front of the building, although these had to be successively removed on the construction of the East Pier and West Pier. The uppermost row of windows is still visible today from the sloping façade in the direction of the approach. Although the Page 1

2 Construction of Terminals 1+2 VIE renovation of Check-in 2 The conversion work of the first area the renovation of Check-in 2 VIE, began in the year The main renovation measures consisted of the following: Renewal or replacement of the north and south façade Cable bracing, together with associated steel construction as support for the existing suspended roof to maintain the load-bearing capability Complete renovation or renewal of the roof incl. damp sealing and heat insulation Overview of construction stage work platforms WEST/NORTH & EAST/SOUTH It would be necessary to build a complete steel construction of steel beams and trapezoid plate as the sub-construction. The steel supports were panelled with wood in the passenger area and painted white. The load-bearing structure and the roof were painted light grey. A clear room height of 4 m was guaranteed below the roofs. On the West & East platforms, work continued for half a year in parallel with the passenger traffic. The platforms were then removed overnight.

Platform, Construction section 2 In order to achieve this, the construction project was divided into 2 construction stages, and a platform was erected first on the right and then on the left side. These had to be assembled and removed at night, so as not to obstruct the passenger area. Underneath view of platform, Construction section 2 Page 2

3 and the entire roof surfaces. The existing pre-stressed concrete ceiling of the suspended roof structure over the East & West Hall areas was only around 6 cm thick. It was therefore necessary to strengthen the load-bearing capacity in this area. The forces were transmitted into the steel columns with the aid of horizontal steel ribs. Steel cables were stretched between the individual steel ribs for bracing. Working area above the platform Since the material transport could not be carried out with the aid of a crane, a further challenge lay in the construction of a ramp, including a lift, in the area of the approach. This would be the only way to handle the construction site logistics. For this purpose, the canopy roof was strengthened by means of a steel construction. Steel cables stretched over the roof Ramp for construction site logistics Access to Terminal 2 Steel cables under the new heat insulation layer Ramp for construction site logistics Via this new ramp, it was possible to renovate both the façade New metal cassette ceiling Page 3

4 The project Renovation of Check-in 2 was completed after one year s construction time. In the course of the demolition of the former arrival area and in preparation for the extension of the old baggage centre and construction of the new South passenger gangway, the check-in counters were temporarily closed in early Check-in Terminal 1 before 2012 conversion View in direction of the Arcade VIE renovation of Check-in 1 For the renovation of the Check-in 1 area, the hall area on level O1, the connecting areas to Terminal 2 and the flat roof of the complete Terminal 1 Hall as far as Parking Garage 3 were renovated in a very short construction time, without interfering with the maintenance of airport operations. Terminal 1 before 2012 conversion Counter roofing Project data Overview of renovation measures Check-in 1 Hall Overview Demolition of the check-in counters and ticket sales counters and the large luggage counter towards Terminal 2 Construction of new counter areas incl. back-office areas Demolition of a total of 18 light pyramids Roof renovation incl. lightning protection system and emergency overflows Creation of an additional escape route in the direction of the approach (East vestibule) Demolition of the existing ceiling construction and installation of a new panel ceiling over the complete Terminal 1 Hall Renovation of the HKLS (heating / air-conditioning / ventilation) and electrical installations Installation of a fire/smoke extraction system for the hall and the baggage transport system behind it Modification of the fire protection and installation of a firealarm system Scope of services Start of construction General contractor services for the renovation of Terminal 1 23rd July 2012 Completion 20th December 2012 Gross floor area ~4,200 m² Client General planner Electrical installations HKLS installations and planning VIE Flughafen Wien AG Schwaighofer + Partner Architektur ZT GmbH Alpine Energie Ortner Ges.m.b.H In the VIE renovation of Check-in 1, it had to be ensured once again that airport operations could be maintained to the level of 100%. This was achieved by dividing again the work into two construction sections. The areas were separated by means of newly developed mobile dust walls. Due to the shaped tubular construction and sliding bearings, these dust walls were particularly mobile, so that the passenger traffic was shielded from the construction site at all times. This also ensured continual access to the large baggage collection area. Page 4

5 Installation of dust walls in Construction phase 1+2 with passenger traffic route All construction measures in the area of the check-in counters and the hall were carried out in Construction section 1. This included Dismantling of the existing ceiling on the night shift (Links: Dust protection wall, Construction section 1, Right: Dust protection wall, Construction section 2) the complete demolition of the counters, their reconstruction, the removal of the baggage transport system behind the check-in counter, the demolition of the glass pyramids and the demolition of the ceiling construction and the installation of a new panel ceiling. The ticket sales counters were renovated in the course of Construction section 2. This included the demolition of the existing counters, the construction of new back-office areas incl. floors and ceiling constructions and the replacement of the shop LED advertising boards. The existing tunnel-shaped, arched metal cassette ceiling was dismantled with the aid of scissor-lift and trailer work platforms transported onto the site. The ceiling directly above the passenger traffic had to be renovated during the night, in order to ensure the maintenance of airport operations. Demolition of the glass pyramids with the aid of a mini ramp crane The infrastructure of the construction site was set up in the interior loading yard, which involved long transport routes over the conveyor bridge recently constructed by us, making the construction site logistics correspondingly more difficult. The removal of the dismantled counters, which due to their bullet-proof design weighed several tonnes, was a particular challenge. The counters were transported in the direction of the approach with the aid of palettes. Since a load limit of 7.5 t had to be observed over the ramp, direct removal of the counters was not possible. The counters therefore had to be drawn over the parking deck and then taken away by truck crane. Dismantling of the existing ceiling with the aid of scissor-lift work platforms Page 5
